It's not easy to find a person with the qualities it takes to be a hero. 【1】

If you saw her, you wouldn't think she really looks the part, but she is stronger than Superman could ever be. Her name is Sandra Keierleber. I first met her at volleyball tryouts（選拔賽） 【2】. As the week passed, however, she showed she had more heart than anyone. She stood out because she never gave up, no matter what happened.

Sandra isn't the tallest or the fastest— in fact, this was her first time playing volleyball and it showed— but that didn't stop her 【3】. By the end of tryouts she had found a place in everyone's heart. When the name list for new members was put up, we all waited nervously as she checked. When she stood at the door and smiled happily, all we could do was cheer.

After Sandra made the team, she worked even harder to improve her game. When she asked for help, we gladly taught her. She also became our fan, attending almost every school game and even joining us in the city games.【4】 Because of her great efforts, she makes herself a true hero— and my hero, too.

A.I didn't really understand the meaning of the word "hero" until my third year in the college.

B.We all like her, because she never thinks about doing things the easy way, or loses that smile.

C.She was always the first to arrive and the last to leave.

D.When she stood at the door and smiled happily all we could do was to cheer up.

E.But I didn't notice anything special at first

【4】B

【解析】

本文是一篇記敘文。主要介紹了作者心中的英雄是學校排球隊的桑德拉，他非常勤奮、積極和樂觀。

【1】根據(jù)上文“It's not easy to find a person with the qualities it takes to be a hero.”可知，作者認為具有英雄品質(zhì)的人不容易找到，后文敘述桑德拉的事跡，可知與之搭配的應該是：直到我大三的時候才真正理解了“英雄”這個詞的含義。故選A。

【2】根據(jù)上文“I first met her at volleyball tryouts”以及下文“As the week passed, … than anyone”可知，作者最開始碰到她是在排球選拔賽，一個星期過后，她驚訝地發(fā)現(xiàn)桑德拉比任何人都有勇氣。與之搭配的應該是：但是剛開始我并沒有注意到她有什么特別的。故選E。

【3】根據(jù)上文“this was her first time … stop her”以及“By the end …in everyone's heart.”可知，桑德拉沒有天分，第一次接觸排球，但是在選拔賽結(jié)束時，每個人都記住了她。與之搭配的應該是：她總是最早一個到，最晚一個走。故選C。

【4】根據(jù)上文“When she asked for help… us in the city games.”以及下文“Because of her …and my hero, too.”可知，我們都很樂意教她，她也是我們的粉絲，因為她的努力，她把自己變成一個英雄。與之搭配的應該是：我們都很喜歡她，因為她從不按簡單的方式做事情，或者失去笑容。故選B。
